This Sunday we celebrated the dedication of Grace Lowe and Reuben Cook. As part of the service the parents dedicated these wonderful children to the Lord.
The Bible teaches us that each life is a precious gift from God. God did not have to create humanity but chose, in His love, to do so.
As David says in the Psalms;
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made." (Psalm 139:13-14)
Each and every one of us is a precious creation, lovingly crafted and created by God. In dedicating Grace and Reuben this Sunday we joined with their parents, family and friends in thanking God for the gift of Reuben and Grace. We also reminded ourselves that we too are lovingly and carefully created by God, and thanked Him for the gift of life given in each and every one of us.
